Have you considered converting this property as a rental property? Rental homes like this tend to be in high demand in this area and several of my clients have hired me to generate a revenue stream for homes they want to sell, until the value increases.

As of March 2015, this home should rent for $1,500 per month and earning a rent check sure beats leaving the home empty and earning you zero.... more

Consumers can not list by themselves on the MLS, so not sure what you are talking about. Let's assume you are using a brokerage with a menu of services to do the MLS listing. You should be asking them your questions.... more

When selling a home but wanting to take fixtures, fans etc.. with you when you leave, I suggest that you take them down and replace them prior to putting you home up for sale. Sometimes even having the these exclusions to a contract stipulated openly in the MLS, you can have buyers that may still insist on certain items sting with the home. Make life easy on your self, they can' want what they never see.

On the other hand I question how serious you are about selling if you are willing to lose out on a sale because you to keep fans & lights, they must be very nice fans...... more

As already stated here the question that you are asking is of a legal nature and you will definitely want to seek proper legal advise from a real estate attorney so as to ensure that the actions you take do not adversely affect the chain of title on the property. You may also contact the closing/title agent that did the title work for you when you purchased the house from your mom and they too can guide you on how best to proceed. Good luck with the sale.

the seller normally pays for the estoppel. IF there is more than one assn then yes the could be more than one estoppel fee to pay. Transfer fees are mandated in the HOA or COA Docs but are only allowed if the Docs require buyer to be approved by HOA or COA. Recording fees are usually on the buyer side of the HUD.

With no cash you are truly in no position to buy a home and I would strongly suggest you put away some funds before doing anything. I would also seek the advice of a lender or RealtorÂ® who can further advise you on the best way for you to plan your housing future. Certainly need more information on your particular situation to really give solid advice;

I am assuming you want to sell you current home and move into the "new" house. How do you know what your house is worth unless you have a binding contract in place? Do you know what the closing cost will run on the sale of your home? Do you know what the closing costs of the purchase of a new home will run? Have you pre-qualified for a loan based on your current situation?

Purchasing and selling real estate in Florida is not an inexpensive proposition as their are state doc stamps on deeds and notes, commissions and other significant fees. Depending on your loan; and you will be either a USDA, FHA or VA there will be significant closing costs. If you have served in our military and qualify a VA loan is the only way to go.

I wish you the best of luck but I truly would find professionals in your area who you trust and sit down and thoroughly review your entire situation. Only then can you get some advice that is truly meaningful.

I hope this information is helpful but if you need anything additional please do not hesitate to give me a call.

Let's update the stats through the end of 2010. There have been 282 sales in Celebration and the median sold price has been $270,000. If we only look at single family homes threr have been 136 sales and the median sold price has been $390,000. There were no sales of home for less than $210,000. (Compared to 2009, the median sold price for a home dropped $10,000 and the lowest price paid dropped $20,000.)

There are 90 single family homes on the market right now which equates to a supply of about 9 months. Overall there are 194 properties on the market, which if you compare to my answer in August is a BIG drop. This market is not going to last forever and if you want a piece of the Disney dream at a great price you might want to think about is seriously now.
